時計の電池交換｜Watch Battery Replacement

腕時計の電池が切れた。いつもなら時計屋さんに電池交換をお願いしていたのだが、一度自分でやってみようと思った。ドライバーで小さなネジをくるくると回して蓋を開けると、すぐに電池が見えてきた。見覚えのあるゲーム用の電池が入っている。コンビニで買うと300円くらいのもので、交換作業は２分で終了。これを時計屋さんに修理に出すと2000円になる。自分でできる作業だなと満足していた次の日、時計を見ようとしたら、時計の内部が曇って時間がわからない！交換時に水分が入ってしまったのか、ネジの閉め方が緩かったのか。今までこんなことはなかった。プロの仕事ってさすがだ。（絵と文：サカキテツ朗）2022/08/23
The battery in my watch ran out. Normally, I would ask a watchmaker to replace the battery, but I decided to try it myself. When I turned the small screw with a screwdriver and opened the lid, the battery was immediately visible. It contains a familiar game battery. If I buy it at a convenience store, it costs about 300 yen, and the replacement work is over in 2 minutes. If I send it to a watchmaker for repair, it will cost me 2,000 yen. I was satisfied that I could do the work myself, but the next day when I tried to look at the watch, the inside of it was fogged up and I couldn't get the time! Did water get in at the time of replacement, or was the screw loose? This has never happened before. It must be a professional job.-Text and illustration by Ted Sakaki
